We retrospectively analyzed 218 allergen skin prick tests ( SPT ) of the patients with chronic sinusitis with or without nasal polyps( CRSwNP/CRSsNP) before the operation. The proportions of positive SPT in CRSwNP and CRSsNP were compared respectively. The distributions of allergens were the same in all groups. The positive rate of SPT in CRSwNP was higher than that in CRSsNP, with statistical significance(P<0. 05). The positive rate of SPT in CRSsNP was higher than that of the control group, without statistical significance. The recurrence rate in CRSwNP was higher than that in CRSsNP, with statistical significance. The recurrence rate in the allergen-positive patients was higher than the allergen-negative patients, with statistical significance.

Objective: To investigate all trans retinoid Acid (ATRA) inhibition of cell growth in human retinoblastoma Y79 cells, and its mechanism. Methods: Antiproliferation effects of ATRA on Y79 cells were determined by 3 H thymidine incorporation. Cell cycle analysis was performed by flow cytometry. JNK phosphorylation was analyzed by Western blot analysis. Results: After 36 h treatment with 10 -6 mol?L -1 ATRA, 3 H thymidine incorporation decreased to 40%, under the same condition, Y79 cells were arrested in G 0 /G 1 and Sub G 1 peak appeared. Curcumin, JNK blocker, blocked the growth inhibition by ATRA. JNK was phosphorylated in 10 to 20 min. Conclusion: JNK phosphorylating mediated ATRA inhibition of apoptosis in Y79 cells. These results suggested that ATRA might have clinical application for treatment of retinoblastoma.
